Jeff Seeley's Social Software Learning Environment (SSLE) Design Project
Last Updated - 7 Mar 09
Design Idea
Students will describe the educational SSLE they have in mind.
What kind of PLE or CLE do you plan to design? What problem are you looking to solve, or what specific learning goals do you hope to achieve? Describe the state the of the learner after participating, not your personal project goal.
What other SSLEs will yours be like?
Audience
Students will describe the targeted learner population.
Describe the focus and scope of your audience? How big of an audience do you seek?
What needs of your audience does your SSLE meet?
When will your audience participate in your SSLE?
Why will they join/subscribe? Why won't they unsubscribe/leave?
PLEs should describe the background and characteristics of the indvidual learner.
Content
Students will provide an outline of the content that will be learned in the SSLE.
What will your audience learn? Why should they learn it through participation in a SSLE?
What types of content and resources does your audience require to learn? Structured or unstructured content sources?
What are the primary media formats that your audience needs to learn this content?
Address copyright issues.
Format
Students will describe the format of the SSLE. Students should describe the structural layout and functional aspects of the environment. What tools and technologies support the main layout/organization of the site and drive the dynamic content aggregation and display aspects of your site?.
What is your reasoning for developing the type of educational SSLE you chose to achieve your learning goal?
What types of communication, collaboration, or aggregation tools do you need and why?
How do you support your primary media content types?
Evaluate & Refine
Design self-evaluation: Students will conduct a self-evaluation of the initial prototype.
How well are the small pieces loosely joined to meet the learning goals?
What types of changes did you make to your LE?
How might you improve on future versions of the SSLE?
